And today I read this in the Khaleej times.

At four different places in UAE the tremors were felt and although the magnitude was not much but what if…

I have seen the devastation caused by the Oct 8th earthquake, 2005 in Pakistan and it just scares me thinking about the consequences if it happens here…I wonder if this part of the world where development projects are on a boom, is prepared for natural disasters.
